I think that you may be wrong saying that copying anything in Edge was impossible. I haven't tried it but try this. Type jaws key spacebar, shift, H to clear speech history. Then read what you wish to copy. Then press jaws key, space bar, H to get your speech history. There it may be. Copy that and you have it.

I was playing with Edge this morning, browsing recipes. I found one I wanted to copy but it's not yet possible to do this either in JAWS or Narrator. Rather than search for the recipe using IE or Chrome, I opted for a work-around. I unloaded JAWS and pressed control a, for select all, then pressed control c. I then opened Word and pressed control v. I then loaded JAWS and there was the recipe, along with the rest of the web page. Smile. I just told JAWS to find one of the words in the recipe title, and then deleted everything above and below the recipe. It was cumbersome, but it worked. The process was even easier when I tried the same thing using the print button. I tabbed through until I got to cancel and there was the recipe, stripped of everything else. Granted, it's far easier at this point to use IE or Chrome, but if you get annoyed or frustrated at not being able to do something technologically that's available to others, there is sometimes a work-around. Perhaps Microsoft will resolve this for us soon. Smile. Rebecca A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it isn't open.
